He wouldn't be surprised.
One man in the United States has
been discovered who ran ahead of
Roosevelt. Hngh Hughes, state senator-elect
for Platte and Colfax coun
ties, carried Platte county by nearly
200 votes more than Roosevelt did.
Poor old constitution! Jefferson

Platte county republicans should

Their success this year is due to
clean policies and safe candidates.
Their success will be permanent in

honesty and fairness.
Mr. Watson of Georgia rises to re
mark that the populist party is ready
to go it alone again. They want no
more alliances with the party of Mr.
Cleveland. It certainly is beautiful
to behold the ecstatic joy with which
Mr. Bryan, Mr. Watson ot al refer to

patiently waiting for a few polysyll
ables from Princeton iu the way of
explanation and cheer.
It is now np to those who hare ob
jected to tno new revenue law to place
those obections in tho bonds of their
representatives in the legislature.
A revenue system should not be a
abject of partisan politics. If there
are defects in the present law, we
all want those defects remedied. The
Jomrnal offers its space freely to dem
ocrats and republicans alike, for sug
gestions alone this line. Let us for
get party and honestly study tho new
law with the aim of making any
changes necessary to make our revenue
system as fair and just as a revenue
system can be made.
MISSOURI.
There can be no question that
Missouri has been held back industri
ally and commercially by the reputa
tion of being a "moss-back" state.
This rather indefinite epithet is gen
erally taken to mean a state whoso in
habitants are still votinc for Bachan
as, regardless. Of course, nobody can
ay that a republican 6tate is any better
morally or industrially than a demo
cratic state. It is the fact that the
voting population of a state is awake
to the spirit of the times that i6 sig
nil cant and full of premise.
1a point of wealth and variety of
resomrces, Missouri is one of the great
est states of the union. Its northern
half is peopled by agricultural settlers
from the states of the great corn belt.
They are as wide-awake and progres
sive as the men of Iowa, Illinois, or
Ohio. The southern half of Missouri
is the grazing, mining and moonshine
district. Its population is practicallv
aaohsHgiag and is to some extent law
less, illiterate, democratic and gener
ally benighted. It is this element that
.has given rise to the. jocular proverb
that a Missourian is one who must
.have physical .demonstration.

- AN INSULT.
The Telegram charges the republican
land slide in Platte county to the
hypnotic powers of I. Gluck and Ed
Hoare and charges theEO two gentle
men with trading off Henggeler and
Hobart. The intelligence of Platte
county voters is left entirely out cf
the question. The Telegram assumes
that they do net read or think for
themselves but simply stand and wait
for the two gentlemen in questiion to
tell them how to vote. The facts are
tnat Henggler owes his defeat to a few
of his republican neighbors who were
so sure of his election" that they did
not go to the polls. And Hobart owes
bis defeat to the fact that he would
not permit his friends to make an
agressive campaign for him. Neither
Hobart nor Henggler nor Mickey nor
any other republican candidate was
traded this fall and the election re
turns published in tbo Telegram dis
prove his charge. For the big repub
lican victory in Platte county, Ed
Hoare and L Gluck deserve a large
measure of credit. Bnt credit is due
them not as hypnotists but as hard
workers. The most of the credit is
due the voters themselves who had
the conrogo to break the spell of the
brutal democratic majority in Platte
county and to register their faith in
a republican legislature that would
stand for the new revenue law which
tho Telegram and other democratic
papers have falsely attacked. The
Journal does not wish to rub it in,
however. It is a bitter dose to take,
but we advise the editor of the Tele
gram to remember that the voters of
Platte county are not fools. Don't in
sult them by charging that Ed Hoare
or any body else votes for them.
THE GOVERNOR.
Late returns settle beyond question
the fact that Governor Mickey is re
elected by a majority much greater
than ho had two years ago. He is
elected on his administration, not on
his personal characteristics, not by tho
assistance of the national ticket.
Massachusetts, Minnesota, West Vir
ginia, Colorado and probably Missouri
all went for Roosevelt, somo by mam
moth majorities, at the same time
electing democratic governors, some
ot them by large majorities.
In the face of these numerous
examples, it can hardly be said that
Mickey was pulled through by Roose
velt, though of course the national
election brought out a larger vote
than would be cast iu an off year.
Against Governor Mickey's public
record there has been raised no charge
that would stick. He was not an
overly popular candidate and he had
many personal enemies, so ho was
singled out for attack and the entire
democratic campaign was made against
him alone. His election by a plur
ality that may reach 1.1,000 is at once
a vindication of his administration
and a rebuke to tho unworthy methods
that were employed against him.
THE SLTJuIiVISOIiS.
Mr. Swanson, tbo only republican
elected to tho board of supervisors,
will be somewhat in the minority in
board meetings, but his influence will
be felt nevertheless. Hitherto there
has not been a republican in the court
house, and while one snpei visor is a
small factor compared to the mighty
court honse ring, his presence will bo
a reminder of other elections to come
and of a democratic majority which
once was but which is not.
It the board of supervisors will now
discontinue the illegal payment of
money to democratic nowsjiapers in
Platte county, it may be that the day
ot retnoution may be stayed lor a
time yet. Not one of these papers has
denied receiving this illegal money,
with the exception of the Biene which
merely denies that the law means
what it says. Either the editor of
the Biene is unable to read English, or
ho is usurping tho function of the su
preme court of Nebraska.
If tho democratic supervisors refuse
to content themselves with paying the
democratic papers only what the law
allows them to pay, let them remem
ber that another election will come.
AFTER THE BALL.
Ach, Louie ! Carl Schurz.
Ah, my friends ! Did I say a "rout?"
Did I mention a "foot race?" Ah. my
friends! W. J. li. (name withheld
from publication.)
If I jnst had that young whelp iu
tho army once more ! Gen. Miles.
This Teddy is a fellow that you
can hit between the eves, all right,
but the trouble is you can't hit him.
T. Watson.
I believe I'd rather be first in a
little Esopian village. Than to be
second in Rome. A. B. P.
I could have showed de bloke a' run
for his mon., and they trun me down
for that stiff. Rotten! Rotten! W.
R Hearst.
The ultimate significance of these
tabulated compilations of numerical
symbols, conveying a portentous in
dication of the general drift which the
national prerogative of nntrammeled
suffrage has assumed, having now
percolated through my sentient facul
ties, impels me, in order to give ade
quate expression to the feelings which
I entertain on this occasion, to revert
for the moment into the vernacular
of the proletariat and to remark that
hell has broke loose. G. Cleveland.
The world is getting to be a tolerably
touch place for a cigarette smoker.
Besides furnishing him with a down
track and greased rails straight to
predictition it stands in the doors of
many big institutions and prevents
him from getting a job. Swift, the
big packer, Montgomery Ward Co.,
Hibbard Spencer, Bartlett Co. and
hundreds of other business firms have
put the ban on "coffin nails" and
tne young man who uses them is de
nied emplovment. When he seeks
employment from the Rock Island the
managers tell him "Your blunders
might wreck a train" and if he goes
to the Union Pacific Harriman greets
him with the cheering information
that "we might as well employ a
lunatic as a cigarette smoker." It's
getting to be a basiaeBs proposition,
boys. Hadn't yon better quit? Cen-

THE SOLID SOUTH.
The vote of - the ex-slave states is
aiiCther commentary on the serious
ness of thn race question in the south.
Every white man south cf tho Mason
and Dixon line is practically disfran.
f cbiseri politicallv because nis vote
must bo used to protect him and his
family from what he calls "nigger
dcuiinction." The southern man has
no more vote on political questions
than his dog has. They call it tho.
democratic ticket, probably because
that was the name they used in the
days when tho south tcck port in
politics. It is the anti-negro party,
having no more to do with politics
thau with relieion or prohibition.
Let tho democrats sweep the country
asthovdidin 1S02; let tho republi
cans carry it almost unanimously as
in a iiX)i the vote in the solid south
rolls in jufct the same, because the
negro question is one which is inde
pendent of tariff, finance, standing
army, foreign or domestic policy. Its
importance does not wax and wane
with the seasons, but rather waxes
over greater ana more ominous iu mo
southern man.
Those who have never been in the
south can have no comprehensiun nf
tho real condition. It is tho one great
domestic problem for which nono can
even suggest a solution. Wo who live
iu the north, where our acquaintance
with the colored race is confined to
industrious bootblacks and obsequious
waiters, can talk fluently about con
stitutional rights and equality before
Go:I and skin-deep color and so on.
Smallpox is only skin-deep, for that
matter. And the man who is afflicted
with smallpox has the same divino and
constitutional rights as anybody elp.
But we banish him, nevertheless,
from the sight and communion of men.
The southern peoplo are not to be
condemnsd by a man who has never
lived in the south. Mob violence is
unjustifiable and unpardonable, but it
is not peculiar to tho south. The
question is not the negro's presence,
not his right to vote, bnt his right to
hold office. This is wLere the south
draws the line. Even Clark Howell,
editor of the Atlanta Constitution, one
of the ablest men of tho south, allowed
himself recently to drift into a violent
denunciation of President Roosevelt
not on a political question, but on
the over-present negro question. Tho
president appointed an intelligent and
cnltured negro to a federal office in
Charleston, South Carolina, and re
fused to bo bullied and bluffed out of
his position by Senator Tillman, a
man who in the matter of polite civ
ilization is n mere blackguard. This
is the act which has raado Roosevelt
as hateful to tho south as Lincoln or
Grant. The tliniuc of Booker Wash
ington was an incident of no impor
tance except for n-wspaper fireworks.
But tho appointment of a negro to a
public office in a southern city was
rubbing talt into the sorest wound of
the bravo sad chivalrous southern
people. If Roosevelt ever made a mis
take in his term as president, it was
that one act.
When a ma.ii arises who can suggest
an effective remedy for tho grievous
condition in the sonthern states, ho
will do the country the greatest ser
vice of the century, sociologically.
DISCIPLINE.
Firo broke out the other day in a
public school building in Now York
City, in which were 2,500 children.
According to press reports, each teach
er gave the commands of the firo drill
which tho children had daily practic
ed, and with haraly a trace of excite
ment the 2,500 children marched in
perfect order out of tbe burning build
ing uninjured.
No words can express how ndmiraLle
and how necersary such a forra of
school discipline is. When little
children can be so perfectly trained
as to walk calmly from a burning
school house, it is an accomplishment
which mny save their lives any day
and which will bo of great valuo to
them in after life.
The great American fault is fligLti
ness, hot-headedness and a proneues3 to
panic. .No adult audience ever assem
bled in a room and walked out in per
fect order at an alarm of fire, as these
New York children did. Let discipline
bo monlded into the nature of onr fu
ture men and women, while their
natures are plastic and receptive, and
how many rash acts may th6y be sav
ed from in their mature years ! Order
is synonymous with hv.v, both natural
and political, and the motto and foun
dation principle of the pioneers of
modern science, Cuvier and Agassiz,
wa3 order, omnia in online.
RESPONSIBILITY.
Thore is no duubt in the minds of
American pcpple as to how President
Roosevelt will employ the power and
meet the responsibilities imposed upon
him by popular vote. In the face of
a popular endorsement so overwhelm
ing, even his enemies are fileni, and
his enemies are not among tho com
mon people.
But in the matter of the republican
victory in Nebraska, the opponents
of tho administration have not aban
doned the attack. It is asserted that
the state ticket was pulled through by
Roosevelt and that the vote is not an
endorsement of Governor Mickey. This
is to be taken as an announcement
that the charges of corporation con
trol will be kept up, and it will be
the opportunity of the state adminis
tration to show whether there is any
foundation for such charges.
If Governor Mickey can close his
second term with as clean a record as
he shows for his first, there will be
nothing to say against him.
It was not until last night that D.
V. Stephens gave np all hope of getting
figures that would indicate the elec
tion of Patrick McKillip to congress,
whose campaign he managed Then
he sent Congressman McCarthy a tele
gram congratulating him on victory.
It has been a long time since as warm
a fight has been put up in this district
as Mr. Stephens made in his effort? to
elect McKillip. He had an office force
of half a dozen at work all the time
in his apartments at the theater, and
there were dozens of lieutenants in it
actively throughout the county and
district. Twenty-five thousand letters
were sent out to voters making a per
sonal appeal for the support for the
democratic candidate. "State Journal-
. AN ACKNO WLEDGE3IENT.
Allow me to express through the
columns of the Journal, my gratitude
to tbe republicans of ' Platte county
for their loyal support, also to .my
democratic friends without kind
assistance! could not have been so
nearly elected. To those friends who
really owed me their support, bnt
worked for my defeat, I have only to
say that it is better to lose honestly
than to win dishonorably.
Yours Tiulv,
Joseph Henggler.
DIRTY POLITICS.
Lincoln Star: No feature. of the
Nebraska election will be more grati
fying to fair-minded citizens thau tbe
emphatic re-election of Governor
Mickey. The brent of the opposition
fight fell upon him. A storm of ca
lumny and personal detraction buret
over him and continnrd down to the
very day of election.
The unscrupulous methods employed
aguinst him met with just rebuke and
condemnation. Tho hlatnn for sneb
abominable abuse is not to be laid in
discriminately upon tho democrats
and populists of the state, for thous
ands of them, fair and honorable men,
deplored such unworthy and wicked
tactics. But there is no qnestion that
amene the responsible leader, both
in the fusion organization and on the
stump and in tho press, a deliberate
conspiracy was formed to break Gov
ernor Mickey down by such means,
and the plan was carried out to the
utmost of their ability.
The governor is an old soldier of tbe
civil war of honorable record, a pion
eer of Nebraska, a leading publio
sririted citizen who ban served the
people faithfully in many places of
trust, a man of high character, and
as governor has, beyond question,
given the peoplo one of the cleanest
and most serviceable administrations
in the history of the state. . Yet this
was the man whom it was plotted to
stop at en scruple to bring into con
tempt, to misrepresent, to defame by
sybtematic circulation of slanderous
fabrications. Such a campaign was
indeed waged against him in the
same rmrtisan interest two years ago,
and this year it was renewed with
increased virulence and malicious
laboration.
. It is well for the state of Nebraska,
well for decency and honesty and fair
play in politics, that the calumioa
otrs have failed, and failed so sig
nally. Snrelv we have had enough of
such wretched business too mnch of
it. Snrely the reckless partisans
who have inflicted it upon the etato
ought by this time to see tbe fruitless
ness of it and ought to stop on that
account alone, if for no other consid
eration May we not hope that when another
political contest comes on in this
state, it will be conducted at loast
with some approach to decency and
regard for the amenities which gov
ern gentlemen in their intercourse?
May we not hope that the result this
year will admonish ruthless political
managers that this is the safest policy
in Nebraska for them, whatever thoir
disposition may be?
